Waldrep isn’t that far off and it sounds harsh but probably right and with this fastball that’s what it feels like. Waldrep is another guy that I’m not sure what happened to his breaking balls he was ripping in college.
Roki went from having a unicorn fastball at one point to this fastball shape. I know I was high on him but it’s odd to see this version of him.
He’s always been a pitcher that tries to just split the plate in half but I am not sure he has the command right now to get the ball down. His miss has always been high and arm side with the fastball. The addition of a cutter and sinker couldn’t come fast enough Lance!
Shoutout TJ Stats - 4-Seam whiff rate, min 100 swings: Roki Sasaki 10.1%, 77th out of 77 pitchers (last!!!)
